This fact points to the decreasing ability of our law enforcement system to prevent violent crime.<\/p>\n<p>City Official: You overlook the fact that the city's population has risen steadily since 1970. In fact, the number of murder victims per 100 people has actually fallen slightly in the city since 1970.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Which one of the following, if true, would most strongly counter the city official's response?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A. The incidence of fraud has greatly increased int he city since 1970.<br \/>\nB. The rate of murders in the city since 1970 decreased according to the age group of the victim, decreasing more for younger victims.<br \/>\nC. Murders and other violent crimes are more likely to be reported now than they were in 1970.<br \/>\nD. The number of law enforcement officials in the city has increased at a rate judged by city law enforcement experts to be sufficient to serve the city's increased population.<br \/>\nE. If the health care received by assault victims last year had been of the same quality as it was in 1970, the murder rate in the city last year would have turned out to be several times what it actually was.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/forum\/citizen-each-year-since-1970-a-new-record-has-been-set-for-112895.html\">Question Discussion &amp; Explanation<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Correct Answer<\/strong> <span style=\"background-color: #fff; color: #fff;\">- E-<\/span> (click and drag your mouse to see the answer)<\/div>\n<p><strong>Like these questions?<\/strong> Get the GMAT Club question collection: <a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/tests\/\">online at GMAT Club<\/a> OR <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fentity%2FGMAT-Club%2FB0048PPF3U%3Fie%3DUTF8%26ref_%3Dntt_athr_dp_pel_1&amp;tag=gmatclub-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957\">on your Kindle<\/a> OR <a href=\"https:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/fs-bin\/stat?id=PJTlq5NYqfE&amp;offerid=146261&amp;type=3&amp;subid=blog&amp;tmpid=1826&amp;RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fapp%252Fgmat-toolkit%252Fid328345537%253Fmt%253D8%2526uo%253D6%2526partnerId%253D30\">on your iPhone\/iPad<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/category\/blog\/gmat-tests\/\"><strong>Browse all GMAT Questions of the Day<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscribe to GMAT Question of the Day:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/feedburner.google.com\/fb\/a\/mailverify?uri=GMAT-Question-of-the-day&amp;loc=en_US\">E-mail<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/GMAT-Question-of-the-day\">RSS<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Math What is the product of 6 consecutive integers?
